Great pictures, nice laundry area, the GE poster has one of my dream list dryers on it! Awesome garage, twin lifts with what looks like a mint set of wagons, one Buick with vista roof and one what, 66-67 Ford Country Squire, and one of my favorite cars, 66 Toronado! Can't quite make out the...

Great Microwave! I love mine, I know you will be amazed at how great it works. I love that Americana range, the coffee maker, too much to list! Congratulations.

You have mail! Thanks, would like to know where this is as well, it might not be too far to drive to give a helping hand if needed.

Congratulations Mark! Can't wait to see this pair, along with all the others in the collection ( and you, Gary and LK) soon! Scott

Playing catch up here after a week, wow, lots to see and read. I could not get the video to work either? I just clicked on the link, nothing happened but the Q symbol for Quicktime... any ideas?

Ah ha. Learned something again! Thanks for explaining the "evenizer" cover. I have that in the 54 GE and while it is not in the best shape, has some rust holes, it is mostly there, I was not sure why, now I know. I just put it back together tonight and tried it by making a frozen pizza, and it...

Thanks Kevin, I tried into the night last night, and again this morning, so far no progress on the switches. I can't see down into them enough to see how they are supposed to work, but other projects have priority, so it will have to wait. I will try to find some of that wire, as one of the...

One of the first really grungy pictures, lots of years of dirt and grease. The oven cleaned up great except the plate over the lower element. I miss it already, it has become the only oven I bake in.

Well, here are a couple of it working before I tried to improve it.. BTW, I just pulled one of the button sets out, interesting, the back wires are just stripped where they run thru the contact area, the other side had wire loops. I had to slightly break the cover to open it as it had brass...

I think you are right.. Nothing else is working, and they worked fine before. I did not know they came apart. I hope the old wires will not be too bad to work with, but guess if they break, it was time to replace them. Thanks!

to this, at least it is clean... right burners won't be able to work, but clean... I hate when I mess things up that used to work..

I went from this... Nasty!

GE range That has the exact same control set up as mine, but a more built in clock, improvements over 2 years I guess. I might have to try for that!

I took it apart today to install new indicator bulbs, and clean up the 50+ years of grease. I used some electrical equipment grease remover on and around the right side control buttons, and now they will hardly move. I used ez off bam grease remover on the left buttons after the failure on the...

Awsome grab there, I would love to see how those work. Congrats!

Which brings me back to my question Why were there so many of these smooth top ranges in the junk pile already? That would be my concern.. as I cook dinner on a 1954 calrod equiped stove.. :-) I have to add that this old stove bakes great, nice even results.. even better than the self cleaning...

I have not ever cooked on a smooth top, strictly old school here.. just as well, since I have three of the calrod style stoves. I am going to look a bit more tomorrow night, this time with a flashlight to see what else is there just for fun.

Sears in Calvert It is the only appliance dealer in the whole county, and usually they keep everything in locked trailers, but I noticed last night as I drove back from the gym that something was back there.. must have been 30 or so items that are just sitting out in the weather, all to be...

a year or so ago that I would go out in 40+mph winds and rain, to pick thru a pile of stoves, washers, dryers etc piled behind Sears, but there I was last night... LOL Lots of newer stuff, smooth top ranges, white faced Kenmores, etc. Did score one filter flo lint strainer from a smashed BOL...

Great find I have never seen that model, I like it more than my all digital touch screen model, even though they have the same features. Love the lighted displays. I just need the probe for mine, it was missing when I saved the machine from friends who moved into a house and were afraid of...
